Chapter 403
Aside from thoughts of revenge, Cameron’s mind was a jumble of confusion.
Suddenly, Benjamin burst through the door, his face lit up with excitement. “Cameron, you’ve got to help me out. Does this outfit look alright? And my hair, is it okay?”
Cameron turned to him, a bit bewildered. “Showing off, are we?

espun around once more. “What do you think? Looking sharp, right?”
Cameron clapped him on the shoulder, genuinely pleased. “Not bad at all. Go get ‘em. But remember, some girls can be pretty good at hiding their true colors. Keep your eyes open.”
With a grin, Benjamin headed out.
Watching him leave, Cameron couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy. Benjamin’s vitality, his youthful zest, and his hopeful heart seemed miles away from Cameron’s own reality.
Benjamin drove his luxury car to the rendezvous spot, where he was meeting none other than Nathalie.
Nathalie had pulled out all the stops today, utilizing every trick in the beauty book. Her hair was flawlessly styled, her jewelry handpicked with care, and her outfit, from the color to the design to the height of her heels, was perfectly coordinated.
She was stunning beyond words.
When Benjamin saw Nathalie, he was captivated. “Ms. Nathalie, I’m… I’m thrilled. I can’t believe you asked me out,” Benjamin stammered, overwhelmed.
Nathalie gave a soft smile, her dimples adding an extra touch of charm. “Mr. Rowland, thank you for accepting my invitation.”
Benjamin replied, “You’re too kind. You’re not just beautiful but incredibly talented. I’m over the moon that you took an interest in me.”
Hearing Benjamin’s glowing compliments, Nathalie silently celebrated her successful gamble. Benjamin was clearly smitten. His gazes were always intense and unguarded. Her plan to captivate him had worked.
“Mr. Rowland, right this way,” Nathalie directed Benjamin to a cozy booth in the restaurant.
Once seated, Nathalie gracefully called over the waiter and ordered their meals with thoughtful care.
Then, she turned to Benjamin with a polite smile. “To be honest, I invited you here because I need a favor. This meal is my treat.”
Benjamin looked at Nathalie, admiration and affection mingling in his eyes. “Ms. Nathalie, you’re not like other girls. No wonder my grandfather is always singing your praises.”
Nathalie was caught off guard. “Oh?”
Benjamin let slip. “Grandfather says you’re incredibly smart. With you by Nathan’s side, he’d be unstoppable.”
Nathalie’s smile dimmed a little.
If Mason saw her as Nathan’s ideal partner, why was he working behind the scenes to split them up?
It revealed his true duplicity towards Nathan.
What a cunning old fox. No wonder Nathan was outmaneuvered by the fool Benjamin, despite Nathan’s brilliance. It must have been Mason’s crafty schemes, teamed with Gavin’s help, that forced Nathan to flee abroad.
